Bharat Bedi, Managing Director for Asia Pacific & Japan at SolarWinds, discussed digital transformation and enterprise infrastructure in two podcast appearances. In a September 2024 interview at ETBFSI Converge, Bedi stated that digital transformation involves companies embracing new technology to create customer value or improve internal systems. He identified complexity from adopting new technologies as a key challenge, noting that fragmentation between on-premise and cloud infrastructure can slow transformation. Bedi described SolarWinds' approach as consolidating data, metrics, logs, and alerts from a company's entire infrastructure onto a single platform to reduce mean time to detect and resolve issues. In a September 2021 episode of The Guiding Voice podcast, Bedi characterized the public cloud versus on-premise decision as a cost and technology choice, comparing it to using Uber versus owning a car. He said enterprises typically use a hybrid approach combining both models, and that the decision to move to public cloud often originates from finance leaders managing capital versus operating expenditure. Bedi also noted that demand for enterprise IT hardware continues because cloud providers themselves purchase hardware, and he advised those entering the field to focus on fundamentals of compute, network, and storage.
“The core of digital transformation is companies trying to embrace new technology for essentially two reasons: either they're trying to create value for their end customers to create customer stickiness and doing innovations around this area, or they're trying to look at their internal systems and make that faster, bett...”
“The biggest challenge of digital transformation comes with embracing new technologies, and the biggest challenge is the complexity that comes with embracing all these new technologies.”
“Companies work on looking at do I have on-prem infrastructure, do I go cloud, where will my applications be hosted, so the fragmentation and complication behind these two technologies is the biggest reason why companies slow down on their digital transformation journey.”
“One of the ways SolarWinds solves these challenges is by looking at a company's entire infrastructure, applications, and database irrespective of the vendor or the OEM or where they are hosted, and SolarWinds tries to bring all the data, metrics, logs, events, alerts on a single platform.”
